Lets be realistic, how many new ports are there within 7 days of Southampton that can accommodate a cruise ship with over 6000 pax? Same combination of Canary Islands and Western Mediterranean ports seems likely. More and more, cruising is about the ship, not the itinerary. Much as I like cruising, I don't really want to be on a floating resort with 6000 other people, visiting the same old destinations, when for a cheaper price I can be in a boutique hotel, albeit waking up in the same resort every day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulsteinvik Posted August 14, 2019 #9 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Yes. When you write the code IONA G109 you will be available to see their itineraries on a site. The next code would be G110 then G111... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisefan2012 Posted August 14, 2019 #10 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Not working for me but are you sure you are talking about Summer 2021 ? beyond what is currently on sale?....... Anything exciting to reveal for Azura? Britannia? Iona? for Summer 2021?.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulsteinvik Posted August 14, 2019 #11 Share Posted August 14, 2019 (edited) Azura replaces Oceana and will sail 7 or 14 days from Valletta Britannia sails the same 14 days med cruises out of Southampton Oceana sails 2 days St Peter Port - 7 days Spain & Portugal - 12 days Canary Islands Iona sails exactly the same routes like 2020. 10 April 2021 till 18 September 2021 Norway and then 14 days Med and Canary Ventura replaces Azura and will sail 14 days Med and 14 days Baltic. Arcadia and Aurora aren't out yet. Edited August 14, 2019 by Ulsteinvik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Britboys Posted August 15, 2019 #15 Share Posted August 15, 2019 I'm sure Aurora & Arcadia will be more interesting Sharon. Perhaps P&O are going all out for the 'package holiday' market with the other ships - its not at all uncommon for people to go to the same hotel and/or resort year after year. I think many long-term, loyal P&O pax will start to look elsewhere though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemorton Posted August 15, 2019 #16 Share Posted August 15, 2019 So practically no choice for people that can only do 7 nights from Southampton then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeanlyon Posted August 15, 2019 #18 Share Posted August 15, 2019 No, I think he means another cruise website. Personally I never pre-register. I always use my TA because pre-registering doesn't give you your choice of cabin. The usual site I go to to see future cruises is not working on those codes for me.

Britboys Posted August 15, 2019 #22 Share Posted August 15, 2019 I'm hoping to take a fairly long cruise with P&O in the early part of 2021, so don't expect to cruise with them again in the Summer season, so don't feel the need to hold my breath. Like Jean, personally I would only be interested in Aurora or Arcadia anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SummmerInKefalonia Posted August 15, 2019 #23 Share Posted August 15, 2019 With these itineraries for Azura in Eastern Med, Marella Cruises seems to be taking the lead in this area. Seriously, P&O left out all the Ionian Islands (Corfu, Cephalonia, Zante) & Katakolon (Olympia)? Oceana had much more interesting itineraries.

jeanlyon Posted August 15, 2019 #25 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Looking at some of 2020 itineraries, only the longer adult only cruises have any decent interesting ports for those who have cruised a lot. We can usually find somewhere different to go in each port though. Civitavecchia for instance we have found a couple of different places to visit. Looking forward to that in October.
